Hawthorn Anthers

Hawthorn flowers with amazing plump pink anthers! Flowers from some of the hawthorn trees here on the farm have this type of alluring anther, while flowers from some of the other trees have rather drab anthers (also shown in this photo). I think there are several different species of hawthorn in the stand, with varying leaf shape and flower and fruit characteristics.
